Notes about Beavers' lineup:

Jordan George-Matt Read-Ian Lowe are BSU's top line and they are dangerous. Have combined for 43 goals. Oh my,

Four players in BSU lineup are Minnesota. One is Gophers transfer Drew Fisher, a junior from Internation Falls, who centers fourth line

Sam Rendle, fr. D from Grand Rapids, Minn., is back in lineup after missing three games with an upper body injury.
